God is the Light
How great the wonders of the heavens
And the timeless beauty of the night
How great – then how great the Creator?
And its stars like priceless jewels
Far beyond the reach of kings
Bow down for the shepherd guiding him home
But how many eyes are closed
To the wonder of this night?
Like pearls, hidden, deep beneath a dark
Stream of desires
But like dreams vanish with the call to prayer
And the dawn extinguishes night – here too are signs
God is the Light - God is the Light
How great the beauty of the Earth and the creatures
Who dwell on her
How great – then how great the Creator?
As it's mountains pierce the clouds
High about the lives of men
Weeping rivers for thousands of years
But how many hearts are closed
To the wonders of this sight?
Like birds on a cage, asleep with closed wings
But as work stops with the call to prayer
And the birds recite – here too are signs
God is the Light – God is the Light
How great the wonders of the heavens
And the timeless beauty of the night
How great – then how great the Creator?
And its stars like priceless jewels
Far beyond the reach of kings
Bow down for the shepherd guiding him home
But how many eyes are closed
To the wonder of this night?
Like pearls, hidden, deep beneath a dark
Stream of desires
But like dreams vanish with the call to prayer
And the dawn extinguishes night – here too are signs
God is the Light - God is the Light
How great the beauty of the Earth and the creatures
Who dwell on her
How great – then how great the Creator?
As it's mountains pierce the clouds
High about the lives of men
Weeping rivers for thousands of years
But how many hearts are closed
To the wonders of this sight?
Like birds on a cage, asleep with closed wings
But as work stops with the call to prayer
And the birds recite – here too are signs
God is the Light – God is the Light
